Farmerman

Naptali: Me born & grow as a farmer man/
Yea-yea-yea, come tell dem Ras Muhamad/

...From Indonesia/ Naptali/

Ras Muhamad from the east, way from Indonesia/
Calling out the priest, Naptali from Jamaica/
I was born to make hit songs, I was born as a farmer/
Born & grow with mom & dad, I man nah grow as a gangster/

Trodding the hills from Clarendon
N might be dirty n mi tired
Still a put mi shoulder to the wheel
Ras Muhamad/
You is a farmer man trodding the hills of Indonesia/
You might be dirty n yuh tired
Still yuh put yuh shoulder to the wheel/

Ras Muhamad:

Still a put mi shoulder to the wheel
